Hi Guys,
What would you say if I told you I have the hole book on my computer I scanned the whole #$$%#@% book a few years ago ,it took me 4 days to do but it is all there. Perhaps I could put it on Cd for you desperates who are paying $150.00 or more great read good book.
 
Cheers

What would I say FBC - I'd say you are a very naughty boy, but well done .  I am more interested in what is in the book than actually owning one, so that could be the go.  I'll send a PM.

DJ - that is a top prayer mate.  Did you make that up yourself ?  I going to transcribe that and put it on the wall in the shed.  Lord knows I could do with some divine inspiration when doing these restos.  Especially when polishing Alloy and Lapping heads 

Hoony you big HLNB - I am in the same boat as you mate.  I thought about putting up progess photos, but bloody hell DJ has set the bar high    Not sure about us Yamaha blokes getting our Tridents ready - I'd rather go on a Honda than a Triumph    Good luck with number 2 mate.

Hey DJ, your alternative version of the Lords' Prayer reminds me of similar in an old copy of 'Trail & Track' magazine from around '78.
I think it was called 'The Dirt Riders Prayer' and the only line I remember was, 'lead us not into gum trees'...

i.ll have cd  10 buck  s for a burnt copy  or 10 for 50 same as movies   pirtate( movies)  latest releases

I had to look up on the internet for the lords prayer but yeah I knocked it up while I was havin a beer

Everyones gunning for ya Hoony, ya better get that resto up on the forum so we can watch the progess of the CR.

[paul]

yeah come on  i would  like too see the progress

I'm gonna wait until Feakys $24 special comes up again. Soon eh Freaky?

Nice work DJ.  You'd better get a patent on that one quick smart .
If Hoony puts up his progress I'll put up mine on the 250
Having all sorts of strife with my plating at the moment.  Things are turning out crap compared to what they were when i started.  It's been a bit dissapointing.  I have probably made more progress during the holidays than I have since I bought the bike.  DJ will be my motivation - keep posting those picks mate.

yeah one i had has the inner corner of the jacket cut off but i dont care, the rest of the book is mint and way better than i was led to believe by ebay seller for $178

[Wombat]

TA DAH!! I just scored one of these for US $84.
Going by the other prices in this thread I'm thinking that's pretty good.

[Tony T]

Well done Wombat.
I reckon I paid about $US150.00 for mine about a year ago.
Our local library had a copy, which is where I first saw it. But it's gone missing strangely enough....................... 
Great book, isn't it?
